First - I agree with whomever proposed that CalgaryNEXT was a plan that Flames new was going to be rejected before going with a rink closer to the exisiting area.
Second - how hard would it be to place a football stadium in the Stampede grounds? What if the existing rodeo area was the football stadium (which could be converted into Rodeo for the Stampede). If it had a retractable roof, or was just plain covered, would make for a better experience for more than just football.
Third - how much risk is there for the new rink still being in the floodplain?
